metal bones sounds hard?

and idk what to do look for direlect frieghters?

[remote thunder]

Metal Bones (sell crew manifest and captain's log to scrap dealer):
Easy Derelict freighter layouts with no infestation: Miurai XI system, Noyama-Kaus I system

[remote thunder]

go buy coordinates from scrap dealer npc in space station

[fickle prawn]

oh ok

[remote thunder]

have mp disabled

[fickle prawn]

why?

[remote thunder]

be sure to get crew manifest and captains log

[remote thunder]

to avoid bugs, people joining in, etc etc

[fickle prawn]

ah ok

[remote thunder]

you're progressing, not having a party

[fickle prawn]

fair

[fickle prawn]

where do i find the scrap dealer?

inside of the space station

[remote thunder]

face app modifier, to your right, behind the stairs

[fickle prawn]

oh ok

[fickle prawn]

i don't have enough units for this guy, 5 million?

[vapid mulch]

where can i get this?

[remote thunder]

there's other milestones that will reward items to sell for units, e.g. phase 5 milestone 1, phase 5 milestone 3, phase 3 milestone 2

[fickle prawn]

im not in phase 5 tho

[remote thunder]

complete phase 2 milestone 2, or unlock it from anomaly and then craft it

[remote thunder]

doesn't mean that you can't do some milestones from that phase

[fickle prawn]

ok, how many frieghters will i have to do?

to get 400

[remote thunder]

1, if you turn in crew manifest and captains log to scrap dealer

[fickle prawn]

oh ok, i just either need real good luck for a frieghter or doing pase 5 missions

[lusty slate]

Copy MT for nanites, sneak up, stun, then neutron cannon blast their butts. 😛

[remote thunder]

there's other ways to make cash

could even get and scrap a sentinel ship

[fickle prawn]

wait

theres a sentinal ship in my system

but

i would need to take down sentinal ships

[remote thunder]

not necessarily

echo locator

[fickle prawn]

yeah

[remote thunder]

find a resonator that drops one, and then another that drops inv mirror, not necessarily in that order

also get 3 shards

then goto harmonic camp, do the thing, get the dissonance spike, goto and claim ship process

[fickle prawn]

you can get echo locator from resonator?

[fickle prawn]

oh

i shall do that

yesssss i have enough

[vapid mulch]

I’m going to look for a workshop or guide now—how to play NMS properly. 😂

[fickle prawn]

wow derelict frieghters are cool

[remote thunder]

space dungeon

[remote thunder]

i hear jasonplays has some nice ones

[fickle prawn]

now i need to find exotic things

[fickle prawn]

i need to install a hyperdrive to find more exotic creatures?

[remote thunder]

no, you'll go through multiple systems via breach milestones that have enough suitable planets to complete genetic glitch; genetic glitch isn't a requirement to complete breach 4 for example.

please

[fickle prawn]

i looked at the pins but there are different systems

i just have to find another portal i guess

[remote thunder]

no

Genetic Glitch:
Noyama-Kaus I system, Nehous V47 planet (exotic)
Oglegk III system, Kobabat I7 planet (exotic)
Yuanbai system, Elump G7 planet (exotic)
Layant XI system, Distoniarn Nabet planet (exotic)

all of those systems - are systems you have been to, or will be in as you progress expedition

no need to portal anywhere specific

[fickle prawn]

ohhh

[remote thunder]

at best, teleport

[celest obsidian]

i reached the part where you have to catch anomalous fish. Is every planet suitable for this?

[remote thunder]

please

[celest obsidian]

alright, i see that planet

[waxen mirage]

Will I get another cursed frigate if I complete this expedition?

Again

[bitter anchor]

No

Found this funny shuttle at rendezvous 3

[misty kite]

where is the infested palent?

nevermind saw the pins

[safe plinth]

Anyone know where I can find the 2nd Exotic Creature in Phase 4?
I found the rolly ball thing, but I've scoured what seems like the whole planet and nothing

Also having a hard time finding the Abyssal Horrors
And yes, I have tried looking for other people's bases with names that say relevant things

[remote thunder]

so you're in Oglegk III system atm?

[safe plinth]

yush

[remote thunder]

look for the planet that has gold in resource list: Kobabat I7

also, check the pinned posts 😉

[livid drift]

Going back in once more...

I think I saw Abyssal Horrors on my one derelict freighter run, unless I'm confusing them with something else. I don't want to have to do a second though... XD

[quaint urchin]

While on a planet, you can open your Discoveries Tab in the Options Menu and check to see how many Fauna are on a planet. Also, if you scan all of the Fauna on a planet you can claim a 250 Nanite bonus per Fauna scanned.

This shows where to claim the Nanite bonus.

[livid drift]

On one of the exotic planets in the pins, the orb things are the only fauna... easy nanites XD

Make that two that are like that

[safe plinth]

how am i supposed to do the milestone then?

if i need 2 minimum, and it only has 1

[livid drift]

Cabled balls of happiness...

[safe plinth]

I have that

[livid drift]

you go to another planet in the pins and look there

[safe plinth]

Theres only 1 exotic planet in this system?

[median sparrow]

Is there any particular reason my game takes 48 year to save?

[safe plinth]

and I dont have a warp drive

[median sparrow]

It's incredibly frustrating because you can't interact with anything until it finishes saving.

[livid drift]

You can go to a space station and warp to a previou system that way

[safe plinth]

I thought the whole point of this expedition was to finish each phease on each system

or am I mistaken?

[worthy hatch]

My recruitment standards for freighters, frigates, and wingmen is a lot lower during an expedition than it is for my main save…

[safe plinth]

I don't even bother. Usually I finish within 2 days

[worthy hatch]

My main save: Only the best.
Expeditions: “Any -kzzzkt- who can hold a gun the right way.”

[livid drift]

it doesn't matter, in fact, you can even jump ahead milestones!

[safe plinth]

and you dont get to keep em so 🤷‍♀️

[livid drift]

[worthy hatch]

Fight me

[livid drift]

not using your resources is a rough thing to do in NMS X'D

[worthy hatch]

Yeah, but I’m not hurting for money or nanites on my main save

[wintry wind]

Damn. So it looks like this expedition doesn’t give any helmets or jetpacks as rewards.

Is there one that does?

[livid drift]

I'm stockpiling nanites for silly things, but I got lucky with money

[worthy hatch]

My priority is finishing the expedition so I can get the rewards

[livid drift]

I.... mean you get an ink trail and one sort of customization??????????

[worthy hatch]

But this expedition has been such a pain in the ass

[livid drift]

Unless I've misunderstood and you mean modules and not customization, in which case I'm still puzzled because that's not correct

[wintry wind]

Constantly having to drink grape juice is a little stressful. Yeah.

[livid drift]

it's a rough one, especially after Aquarius

you find a rhythm eventually, I think

[worthy hatch]

And it’s even worse because I’m doing it on my dad’s PS5, so I have to alternate with him and he has literally zero interest in expeditions

[livid drift]

oh.

[worthy hatch]

So my playtime is extremely limited

[livid drift]

that's troubling.

[wraith junco]

Check yt for guides

[quaint urchin]

This can be caused by any number of things, but would be best asked in #nms-questions

[wintry wind]

I can play older expeditions, right? Google says 15 has a cool jet pack I can get.

[worthy hatch]

Nope. You missed your chance.

[wintry wind]

Oof.

Sad.

[wraith junco]

Cant play older expeditions unless u are on pc . There is a mod for it

[worthy hatch]

If you’re playing on PC, you can use a save editor to unlock the rewards

[median sparrow]

I did. I didn't realize which channel I was in until after I looked over. Mobile is odd

Thank you. 🙂

[young warren]

I need exactly 1 tainted metal 😦 (ugh, such a slog on this for some reason).

[weak trench]

how to complete fear the sun achievement?

[gaunt stump]

damn this start is brutal. By the time I swim to another island with dihydrogen the boundary breaks again

[remote thunder]

answered in #nms-questions

[remote thunder]

did you notice that there's a couple dihydrogen jellies in your ship, as well as a repair kit? also, fear the sun from phase 2 can be done right away, which will get you prebuilt personal refiner

[gaunt stump]

I did but can I use those to make the elixir?

And looks like the islands all go underwater so Fear the Sun is a no go atm

[remote thunder]

fixed your ship? then you should be able to take off and recharge anomaly suppressor/find dihydro elsewhere

[remote thunder]

deleting terrain underwater works too afaik

[gaunt stump]

Finally fixed the ship. Sooo much swimming lol

[fickle prawn]

how do i find quadrupeds?

[unkempt kraken]

@fickle prawn
-# to view info below, enable embeds

<:info:850810445577453658> Expedition 16: Tips to find and destroy Corrupted Quadrupeds

Tips for finding them:

• 1) Try to locate Dissonance Resonators - some of them will be guarded by large quadrupeds.
• 2) Alternatively, you can start a fight by just looting a Gravitino Ball, and escalate wanted level to level 3, when large quadrupeds can spawn.

Tips for taking them out:

• 1) Install Paralysis Mortar+Primary weapon of choice(+3 S-class upgrades). Locate and approach a corrupted quadruped. If there's any floaters around kite them away first (mine something nearby so that they'll go investigate, leaving you alone with the quadruped). Shoot Paralysis Mortar at quadruped to stun it, re-applying stun as needed, while shooting primary weapon.
  Bonus: Unlock and install Voltaic Amplifier from Space Anomaly/Multi-tool research NPC for +21% damage vs stunned entities.
• 2) Use Minotaur+Minotaur Cannon.
• 3) From the air, especially if your current ship has hovering capabilities, for example using Rocket Launcher.

[civic kelp]

finished the cursed expedition the other day

it was my 6th, as I started playing couple months ago

so far my favourite

and I had a blast with previous 5!

thanks @remote thunder for all tips, especially bringing tainted metal;)

[frozen laurel]

During this expedition is there still damage from toxicity, heat, cold, radiation?

[civic kelp]

sure thing

well, I think so. but I'm not sure anymore...

[remote thunder]

there's increased hazard on anomaly suppressor yeah, but there's no advantage in having normal hazard protection modules

@frozen laurel exception: underwater upgrade modules (edit: #nms-expedition message - forgot, the cold module also works on DF runs

anomaly sup still drains, but at least you can stay underwater (for as long as, obv)

[frozen laurel]

Last time I installed a stack of suspicious hazard protection modules, they stacked with the anomaly suppressor. But I forgot if there were also normal hazards on planets too.

[remote thunder]

those (still) work because they buff core hazard prot tech, which anomaly suppressor replaces

actually, i've not tried in exp16 redux

i'll let you know in a bit

[civic kelp]

btw finished the cursed without using mt mods, let alone copying mt from main save

sold them all, which was a bit reckless

[remote thunder]

@frozen laurel not seeing any improvement from the +21% techs, which is the same stat type as the x-class hazards

[frozen laurel]

Alright, I could be mistaken.

[remote thunder]

@frozen laurel shield lattice does buff it

by more than 1min, according to visor

[frozen laurel]

That's a nice amount.

[ashen shore]

Is cursed back on?

[civic kelp]

yes

[ashen shore]

Nice

On account of me not having my own PC for the longest time, it was the only expedition last year I missed

[civic kelp]

:/

[ashen shore]

I'll have to hop on tomorrow and get it done

[civic kelp]

I think you've still over a week

it's short and fun

[remote thunder]

^^ cant' run these quests in expedition

[tepid wedge]

so how do i run it

[remote thunder]

you need to be playing a non-expedition save, complete the requirements listed above, and trigger the quest; complete it, then farm void motes to buy the staff parts you want to use, then locate an autophage camp (you'll know how by then ofc) and preview staff assembly

staff head used+camp location affect starting class, and looks

[tepid wedge]

so do my main story line sorry im new to the game

[worthy hatch]

And I’ve been looking everywhere for a third one.

[worthy hatch]

Another exception: The cold module on Derelict Freighters

[worthy hatch]

The C-class buildables from the Space Anomaly also buff your core hazard protection

[remote thunder]

yeah, but not anomaly suppressor

[worthy hatch]

Actually, I tested it

Still works, for the specific environments

It’s the ones which take Ion Batteries that don’t work

[remote thunder]

so did i - just earlier -- didn't gain any protection time on anomaly suppressor, testing with the extreme weather scorched biome in the starter system

[worthy hatch]

Hmm. Seemed to work fine for me.

[remote thunder]

i get 10m40s 10m14s with anomaly suppressor SCd

[worthy hatch]

I think adjacency matters

[remote thunder]

the same 10m40s with the +21% tech, also adjacent - sorry, misremembered, 10m14s

confirmed via visor

iow, x-class hazard should not work -- as it's the same stat type

i was thinking of exp's 16 original run, when we could install base hazard prot side by side anomaly sup

shield lattice does buff anomaly suppressor time though

by more than 1 minute by my testing

[worthy hatch]

In the Redux seems to do it differently

[remote thunder]

this was tested in exp16 redux -- i did say "just earlier"

[worthy hatch]

I don’t know what to tell you then. Maybe we live in different universes, but it’s extending everything for me.

[remote thunder]

extending by how much exactly?

[woven shadow]

Let’s see if I can finish the Expedition tonight

[tepid wedge]

im half way through it

[remote thunder]

with the +21% tech installed,

and without it

install shield lattice

[tepid wedge]

what is the reward for completing the expo

[remote thunder]

final expedition reward is boundary herald ship; see #nms-expedition message for all

[woven shadow]

Woo, breach five!

[tepid wedge]

im on phase 3

[woven shadow]

Well…down the hatch!

I did it!

[tepid wedge]

thats wassup

[remote thunder]

congrats!

[woven shadow]

I wasn’t able to complete this the first time around so I’m glad.

[remote thunder]

enjoy the rewards 🙂

[woven shadow]

Time to head back to my main save and then start tinkering with the new ship.

[remote thunder]

cool expedtion imo

[woven shadow]

Ooooh I got a bunch of Living Glassglassglassglass

Excuse me

[worthy hatch]

glass glass GLASS glass

Wait, does that mean the Station Override causes space stations to get Laylaps’d?

[remote thunder]

last i tried station override didn't do anything, just consumed it from my inventory after a few words out of the terminal

not quite sure why it can still be obtained, i guess for completionists

maybe it will have a function in the future

[worthy hatch]

The station does say the same glass-glass-glass thing that Laylaps does though, so lore-wise maybe it just gets the station core stoned or something :p

[tepid wedge]

where do i find hungerian tenderails

[remote thunder]

check #nms-expedition message

[tepid wedge]

thank yopu guys so much you guys are awesome

[worthy hatch]

I swear, the hazard protection upgrades were working yesterday. Was that just a bug…?

Oh well… I have a minotaur

[remote thunder]

yeah - minotaur can be used for combat, collecting storm crystals (and avoiding those tornadoes 😄 )

[worthy hatch]

And just keeping your anomaly suppression from draining

[remote thunder]

yeah, because shelter

[worthy hatch]

There are two kinds of players in this Expedition: Those who think they’re ghostbusters, and those who realize they’re not

[remote thunder]

if started from new save, towards the end of the expedition, they don't really stand a chance 🦾

[worthy hatch]

To be a Ghostbuster, you need either a fully kitted out minotaur and a fully upgraded, fully supercharged pulse spitter…
…or co-op.

[remote thunder]

i had.. a 2 SC pulse spitter with 3 s-class modules towards the end

and they were dropping easy

[worthy hatch]

Personally, I’m more fond of a boltcaster, because it’s generally more accurate

[remote thunder]

true

pspitter does need a little more restraint on the trigger/bit closer in range

[cerulean delta]

finished expedition in like 4 hours straight

[worthy hatch]

The Boltcaster also has been with me since the beginning on pretty much every save and has a lot more time/resource investment into it

[cerulean delta]

god help me

pulse spitter is probably my least favorite weapon

[worthy hatch]

I prefer Expedition 14’s rewards because you can make yourself look like a half-zerg, but expedition 16’s ship is pretty awesome. It reminds me of the Jupiter 2.

[split olive]

I have a question about the expeditions. Do I have to start a new save every time a new expedition comes out? Or can I jump into an expedition with an existing save?

[worthy hatch]

The latter is possible, and strongly recommended

[split olive]

OK so I can go on an existing save and start the new expedition but it does say that I’ll start with a new ship and new multitool so I won’t lose anything though? Thanks for answering by the way just trying to figure it out.

[worthy hatch]

You’ll have two save files sandwiched together

[split olive]

Oh ok, so they’re both the same and you’ll still have all your stuff from the other one

[meager scroll]

As far as I know difficulty settings don't carry over from primary save into expedition save

If that was the case, people would just do all expeds from Creative saves to have most of the stuff available from the start

[worthy hatch]

On PC, I tried save editing an Aquarius save to turn it into Survival Mode <.<

[meager scroll]

So I think scaring people with permadeath expeds is not warranted

[worthy hatch]

Ah

[worthy hatch]

I’m both a PC and PS5 player, but they’re pretty much separated from each other… for now.

[meager scroll]

You can use existing saves to start an expedition

By visiting the dedicated terminal at Space Anomaly

Doing so will let you pack some provisions to carry over into the expedition

And create a copy of your current ship and multi tool to use on exped

[dense basin]

Bringing over a mountain of di-hydrogen is super helpful with this expedition

[meager scroll]

Keep in mind that's only an optional thing, expeditions can be played and completed from scratch

[split olive]

Yeah, that’s kind of my situation right now too lol

[meager scroll]

Or pungeum or mordite, anything to help craft the elixirs

[split olive]

OK, I’d like it makes a lot more sense now I was thinking I could bring my frigates and my capital ship and all of my other stuff

[worthy hatch]

I would NOT recommend starting The Cursed completely from scratch. My advice is to bring along a bunch of Suspicious Packets (Arms/Tech) so that you can sell the contents for nanites

Don’t bother bringing along starship or multi-tool tech, as you can just use your nanites to copy the starship and/or multi-tool

[split olive]

Good to know

[worthy hatch]

In my case, it was 2400-2800 nanites each to copy a multi-tool / starship, but they were both S-class, so the cost may vary

[dense basin]

I brought along a backpack refiner and a pile of hadal cores. I also brought some cakes to feed to Cronus.

[livid drift]

I was thinking of doing Cursed on my (very fresh) Switch save because fancy ship, but. Oof. No. And definitely not on a migraine

[worthy hatch]

Note that to actually retrieve the stuff you pack… you need access to the Space Anomaly, as you have to retrieve them from the Expedition Terminus

[livid drift]

(NMS has me hooked, it's safe to say)

[dense basin]

It's still totally doable - you'll just have to work harder for it.

[worthy hatch]

This means you must travel through at least one portal

[livid drift]

Yeah. The beginning is ROUGH XD

[split olive]

I’ve been so hooked to NMS I play it ever chance I get lol.

[livid drift]

I'm sitting it out on Switch for now because then I probably will wake up and see jellyfish XD

[dense basin]

Yeah, I had no di-hydrogen anywhere near me and was on a small island. I fixed up my ship and got out of there as fast as I could

[worthy hatch]

You also can’t add stuff to the Terminus from your main save after claiming it on the Expedition side, so make absolutely sure you’ve packed everything. Share your Expedition starter inventory with us so we can doublecheck

[livid drift]

I'll just be sitting there and I'll think "I want to go to space." Getting it on both Switch and PC has proven worthwhile

[split olive]

lol I have on all my systems too

[dense basin]

It's pretty much the only thing I play on my steam deck 😆

[livid drift]

I winged my expedition inventory because I was... Also having a migraine then and had no ideas. Bringing the basics definitely helped though

[worthy hatch]

Don’t bother with hazard protection upgrades, except for Cold and Underwater, as the former will be used during the Derelict Freighter. In all other environments (including cold planets), your Anomaly Suppressor will take over.

[dense basin]

Haha, was literally typing that

[livid drift]

Underwater spawn (which was cool and thematic but also a trip) and no di-hydro for ages on my end. That first elixir was a doozy

[dense basin]

One di-hydrogen per rock until I could get out of there. THE PAIN

[livid drift]

That was the day I conked and and woke up thinking I would see the jellyfish (and/or had slept until the next day)

[worthy hatch]

If you have Laylaps (ie, if you have the Sentinel Flare in your inventory), take that with you. It gets REALLY lonely during this expedition. Don’t worry, Tethys will give you a replacement on your main save.

[livid drift]

Interesting... I haven't gotten there yet but that's good to know

[worthy hatch]

“What do you mean you LOST it?”

[livid drift]

"I put it through a portal to another timeline" "you WHAT"

[worthy hatch]

Bring packaged suit upgrades with you which increase your maximum health, such as Remembrance and the Star Seed (or Mark of the Denier if you were an asshole to the ATLAS.)

[livid drift]

(thinking of being a butt to the atlas but I'll see when I get there)

[worthy hatch]

Mark of the Denier is inherently inferior to the Star Seed because you have to spend nanites to charge it, and it doesn’t synergize with Remembrance

Rocket Boots are… useful, but optional. Yeah, they’re annoying due to their tendency to activate without your permission, but you’ll be using the Target Sweeper a lot, not to mention visiting space stations. In both cases, they help you get around a lot faster. (You can’t sprint jump in either of those situations, which is why the rocket boots help.)

Airburst Engine is helpful to keep you airborne, and thus stop you from dying due to fall damage.

Bring Atlantideum if you have any. It refines to pugneum, and it’s also needed for one of the milestones.

Nutrient Processors are not unlocked during the expedition, so I recommend bringing one.

[dense basin]

why?

[worthy hatch]

You need a way to prepare food to restore health.

[dense basin]

just eat meat

[worthy hatch]

Whichever ship/multi-tool you have selected before hitting “Start Expedition” will be the one you can copy.

Oh! Bring something that you can sell for a lot of money.

@split olive Don’t pack a Shield Lattice. You’ll already have the blueprint, and it’s not too expensive to build.

DO build one as soon as possible though, and make sure you supercharge your anomaly suppressor

[bronze solstice]

As a personal reccomendation, bring in things that you can refine to nanites

[split olive]

Got it!

[bronze solstice]

Stuff like Inverted Mirrors and Radiant Shards are good for Nanites

Makes it real easy to get your ship and multitool easily

..me when englishlier goodest

[livid drift]

There is a milestone for accumulating a lot of nanites (over 4k), so I second that recommendation. I forgot to do it myself but uh, also lucked out and found someone's base near like, 6k of runaway mold

[tepid wedge]

[bronze solstice]

It's a sentinel-looking drone with crystals appearing out of them

They look like robotic spiders

They exist around Inverted Mirrors

[tepid wedge]

what planet would i find it if i cant hyperdrive

[bronze solstice]

Hyperdrive isn't needed for the entire expedition

It's a planet with "Dissonant" in the tags

If you are in the system that the mission appears, the planet should be named something like Uila OImega

Omega*

[slender sphinx]

ty

[bronze solstice]

Inverted Mirrors are 1:95 nanites and Radiant Shards are 1:50

With quick refiner times too

The way I do it is stack ~8 stacks of radiant shards to not only get but also fuel my Sentinel starship

I only ever picked them up for fuel and autophage gifts, so this is great info!

[zenith shore]

thanks

[civic kelp]

How experienced are you? If you can move some essential items and copy good Mt you might push it towards 2

[celest obsidian]

is there a way to transfer items from expeditions to normal saves?

[remote thunder]

After finish, exp save converts to normal; join a friend, push items to them, swap into your main save and rejoin friend

[celest obsidian]

alright

how do i complete "genetic glitch"? there's only one exotic planet in the system, and yes i checked pins

[remote thunder]

There's more planets in the systems ahead, with more exotic fauna, which will also count. You don't have to complete genetic glitch before moving on to other milestones of phase 4

[worthy hatch]

“Fear The Sun”, but in the ‘history of the entire world i guess’ singsong voice.

[celest obsidian]

oh, alright.

so, i can skip milestones?

[remote thunder]

If they're not required, yes

[celest obsidian]

alright

[worthy hatch]

It’s non-linear

The only exceptions are the portal milestones, which each require the corresponding elixir of blood, and a couple of things in Phase 5

[celest obsidian]

what..?

is there a fix to this...?

(my inventory isnt even full btw)

[long bone]

ye it happens

move away from your current ship

[celest obsidian]

oh

im in space

[long bone]

lol

once you land youre good

[celest obsidian]

alright i got it

[long bone]

enjoy

[remote thunder]

yeah, cant be in ship to claim it

[frozen cloak]

Yhe boundary herald is an interesting ship

[queen zinc]

Cany anyone give me a hand with the exspadition i want the ship but dont wanna play this game alone anymore lol

[remote thunder]

well, tbf if you play expedition with mp enabled (disable pvp though), you probably won't feel all that alone, there's pretty much players everywhere

there's always someone around to answer questions should you have them

[wooden ridge]

I just started this game a few weeks ago, and this being my 1st expedition. I found making sure I was connected online there were bases and communication pods all over to help out. Tons of resources and material. Was able to get it done during the weekend. The ship is awesome now I just need to get the Nanites up on my main save to claim it.

tomorrow, i play 12h around !😈⚡❤️❤️

[pastel haven]

how do i get pugneum at the start?, havent been able to come across any sentinels

[remote thunder]

you know how sentinels are -- when you're out and exploring, one usually eventually always spawns nearby. that said, goto station, buy+install+dismantle c-class boltcaster module

[civic kelp]

wierdest and most fun things happened to me due to mp issues during expeditions tbh

during this expedition I got a pirate dreadnaught

[remote thunder]

oh yeah, i know - but in their case, i figured that it might actually get them to play

😄

[civic kelp]

while I had no freighter on my own; joined someone else fighting one. claimed the dreadnaught

and then got the reward for the other guy destroying his (which would be the same dreadnaught)

that was strange and fun, but glitchy

[civic kelp]

as I mentioned before, finished the exp16 with basic boltcaster with no upgrades; luckily found some other guy on dissonant planet and hunted quadrupeds together

coop in this game can be so fun, you know

[remote thunder]

ahuh

🙂

[rocky kernel]

If I take from someone's base collector/miner/etc that collected an activated metal, plants or oxygen it doesn't take it for everyone, right? Like when the other person gets on, so long as they're not in MP they can get a full stack, right? Also curious how some folks are getting some of those higher level miners so quickly on the exhibition, I haven't yet unlocked them on my main play through, though I suppose you could just buy them in the anomaly maybe. Was nice to find some, was going to but used one to land and noticed all the nice mats and took some. LOL

Oh and I took from the bases that said to take them. 🙂

[remote thunder]

it doesn't take it for everyone, right?
i'd just disable multiplayer before i did, to make sure that data doesn't get synced to anybody nearby (it shouldn't, but just to make sure)

[rocky kernel]

I play exhibitions single player, while it's fun to see folks around it seems to interfere with some unlocks.

[remote thunder]

Also curious how some folks are getting some of those higher level miners so quickly on the exhibition
could just buy them in the anomaly maybe
yep, some might have even brought enough salvaged data via expedition terminus

[remote thunder]

okay, then just informative/gtk 🙂

[rocky kernel]

Thanks, good to know I'm not stealing from others then. Wasn't sure how instancing of resources work in those devices. Makes sense that it's not something that syncs without multiplayer.

[fair relic]

After this expedition will the boundary stabilizer be useless?

[remote thunder]

yes; expedition runs started from new save will convert to normal after they finish iow complete and claim all milestones, and anomaly suppressor will be replaced by normal, core hazard protection tech

[fair relic]

What about the anomaly seal i have built at my base

[remote thunder]

serves as a base decoration, but also won't have the anomaly suppress mechanic (as that's basically only in exp16)

[fair relic]

Bummer

[uncut swallow]

Why can't I use hyperdrive in expedition?

[atomic estuary]

Bc the cursed doesn't give you the blueprint for it, it was designed that way

[uncut swallow]

I can't get to an infested planet... lol

[atomic estuary]

Unless you copy a ship with hyperdrive from your main save you won't have it

[atomic estuary]

Use portals

Or teleporters if there is an infested planet in one of the rendezvous systems

(There most likely is one)

Here -> #nms-expedition message

It's pinned

[uncut swallow]

I love you.

[worthy hatch]

I wish the recipe for Elixir of Quicksilver was available as a post-Expedition reward. It’s the single most reliable method of locating a portal in the entire game.

When you start the expedition from an existing save file, make sure you bring a lot of the elixir of quicksilver back with you

[fringe sierra]

I made my new save back when this exp first launched during Halloween. So I have that recipe still

[full oyster]

Anyone else having issues with expedition the video I watched not match up with planet names not finding locations need to complete phases

[quaint urchin]

Check the date on your Video. If it isn't less than a week old it is probably for the original. This one is called The Cursed Redux edition, but the video you are watching is probably from the original run.

@quaint urchin ya tried that have watched at least 2 different ones o e was 3 days I think other was 5 days and they both had different planets for the phase im trying to do

[remote thunder]

[vital vine]

Finally al i did was warp in to an outlaw system and it was on last pic is the system

[livid drift]

Back at it... seems I left off floating over deep water (the milestone. thankfully did not actually leave myself over water)

[remote thunder]

wb

keep it up, you got this

[livid drift]

on that note, where would you recommend getting the aquatic landing jets from? or can you just plop yourself into the water and wait? (probably should keep the ship nearby though)

I keep finding lakes and not oceans...

[sharp basin]

remember if you need deeper area to catch that fat fish you need.. swim to the bottom of the lake/sea and excavate the bottom as deep as you can.. then '' go fish ''

[livid drift]

I actually caught the fish earlier! I forgot that they'd be deeper than I was, but I lucked out

[sharp basin]

they still haven't introduced my favorite fishing bait...

Dynomite!!

[remote thunder]

aqua jets is a starship tech that can be unlocked from anomaly starship research npc

[livid drift]

oh, we can still do that? I'll admit I have not been investing much in my ship this exp XD

[remote thunder]

yeah, it's available

[sharp basin]

its a must.. landing on water is so much easier than on land..and you can fish right off the deck of your ship

[remote thunder]

or can you just plop yourself into the water and wait? (probably should keep the ship nearby though)
for the milestone? definitely can do it without aqua jets - when seen from space, a large water body might seem that it has no islands at all there, but it will

[livid drift]

I cheated with my first set of aqua jets. I got them from Aquarius XD

[remote thunder]

for the milestone to count , yeah, gotta be in the water yourself

[livid drift]

blueprint memory lost... very interesting......

[remote thunder]

oh aqua jets is?

oops sorry

yeah devs do that sometimes

[livid drift]

no

not that

[remote thunder]

hyperdrive?

[livid drift]

I just saw it on hyperdrive on the way there

yep

[remote thunder]

yeah lol

[livid drift]

It's just intriguing because. you know. boundary jellies, what are you doing...

[remote thunder]

but yeah, what you just saw there, could happen with other techs, in some expedition

normally all is available, but ofc in exp16 makes sense that we cant (learn hyperdrive, would bypass the coolness)

[livid drift]

Boundary jellies have made hyperdriving unsafe, uh-huh...

[remote thunder]

hehe

[livid drift]

If I knew I was gonna need crystal sulfide... easy to get but still

well. that's the first time I've actually seen a gravitational anomaly happen.

[remote thunder]

they're awesome

little melee jetpacking impulse, and there you go - particularly good with airburst engine suit tech installed

[livid drift]

the way the grass is shaking is unsettling XD but at least they're not quite as actively harmful

omg, an actual turtle.

[modern mural]

what is the galctic port coords

i rlly want it

[silk wasp]

hi all 🙂 i make a base to be safe when craft, the name is Be safe here/A salvo aqui is little but... safe, have exo caller anomaly stabilizator and of course, save game point

[remote thunder]

- won't portal to the right planet, but once you're in the system, just fly over to Uila Omega planet

[modern mural]

ty

[livid drift]

It's on Uila Omega, which is in the 4th milestone/breach system. You're advised to go there for corrupt quadruped hunting anyway

(I'm slow)

[remote thunder]

aw that's nice of you. make sure to upload the base by interacting with base computer and selecting upload

[remote thunder]

figured i'd give them a quick hand, as i remembered the name of the planet for a milestone 🙂

[livid drift]

People really are going out of their way to make bases to help others on this expedition, I love it

when I'm done inner tubing I'm heading to... "Corrupt Quadruped Shooting Range." mm-hm

[silk wasp]

i select register base i hope that help another players as me, with problems

is near 2nd portal (very very near)

[remote thunder]

remember that you can always ask questions here when you're feeling stuck/don't know how to approach something e.g. aracnophobia milestone in phase 4. remember to also check the pinned posts, almost sure you'll find useful info there

[remote thunder]

pew pew

[silk wasp]

yep thanks i just finish the titan worms quest

a good action movie xD

[tepid wedge]

anyone know how to get s class sentinsl ship

[silk wasp]

now i need credits, need to buy another ship with better storage

[remote thunder]

in expedition 16? i'd suggest first teleporting to Oglegk III system, then interacting with the teleporter there and see if there's any "s-class sentinel ship" or "harmonic camp" bases there. if not, then i'd suggest obtaining an echo locator to locate an harmonic camp, typing !faq-interceptor in #bot-spam , and reading the harmonic camps link, that entire subpost.

[remote thunder]

note that many items aren't necessarily needed to complete the expedition: whatever you don't strictly need, you dump (sell, delete) (feel to post screenshots of your cargo inventories so that we can help you determine what's worth keeping and what isn't). iow, you shouldn't really need to get a 2nd ship for storage, you shouldn't really be needing to hoard a lot of stuff.

[tepid wedge]

i just finished that expedition

[silk wasp]

what?

can i have anothrr ship???

i think limited to 1

[remote thunder]

you can own up to 12 ships per save

[silk wasp]

wtf

okay, now yes, i need another ship haha

[remote thunder]

(any ship can be inventory and class upgraded, if it's not already s-class)

[livid drift]

me carrying everything in my exosuit and just ignoring my ship

I like explorers but I'm also spoiled by iron vulture on main...

didn't expect this XD this base is very bass pro indeed.

I'm sort of tempted to make a base on this planet. The only keeper thus far.

do the boundary stabilizer things convert into different technologies when you finish the expedition?

[remote thunder]

anomaly suppressor gets replaced by normal core hazard protection tech

[silk wasp]

how?

[remote thunder]

in most cases, either using units or using a storage augmentation item at the starship outfitting terminal in (non abandoned) space stations

[silk wasp]

mmmmm okay

[remote thunder]

type !faq-inventory in #bot-spam for more info when you get a bit of spare time, see the sublinks there as well

[silk wasp]

and... i can change the appareance of my ship? color for example

[remote thunder]

no. we can only color customize ships when we build a ship, and we can only build some of the ship types (fighter, explorer, hauler, and solar sail types)

[silk wasp]

then, the ship from this event cant be modified in color?

the reward ship i want to say

[remote thunder]

correct, it cannot

[livid drift]

On the one hand, I'd appreciate easy paint jobs. On the other, something about hunting down all the parts for the perfect vanity ship sounds fun XD

how do you determine the color of a ship you fabricate, for future reference?

[remote thunder]

you select them 🙂

[livid drift]

yessss

time to blow my nanites on a very silly ship when I get back (maybe)

this base has a terrarium thing with a little blobguy in it!!!

[remote thunder]

quicksilver shop purchase

[livid drift]

this base is 10/10

time to find a spot nearby to put my own base (though sadly I don't think this other one I found will carry over)

this planet even has floating islands. SCORE

excuse me I'm a bit busy over here

<:info:850810445577453658> Expedition 16: Tips to find and destroy Corrupted Quadrupeds

Tips for finding them:

• 1) Try to locate Dissonance Resonators - some of them will be guarded by large quadrupeds.
• 2) Alternatively, you can start a fight by just looting a Gravitino Ball, and escalate wanted level to level 3, when large quadrupeds can spawn.

Tips for taking them out:

• 1) Install Paralysis Mortar+Primary weapon of choice(+3 S-class upgrades). Locate and approach a corrupted quadruped. If there's any floaters around kite them away first (mine something nearby so that they'll go investigate, leaving you alone with the quadruped). Shoot Paralysis Mortar at quadruped to stun it, re-applying stun as needed, while shooting primary weapon.
  Bonus: Unlock and install Voltaic Amplifier from Space Anomaly/Multi-tool research NPC for +21% damage vs stunned entities.
• 2) Use Minotaur+Minotaur Cannon.
• 3) From the air, especially if your current ship has hovering capabilities, for example using Rocket Launcher.

I found a ruined freighter, it tells me that it is a target but I get closer and I can't land and there is nothing, I have tried to shoot at it but I can't destroy it either, what should I do?

[remote thunder]

a derelict/abandoned freighter in space, when you were pulse driving somewhere?

-# to view info below, enable embeds

<:AtlasNmscord:1269532093076078658> **Derelict Freighter Events**

**Why can't I land on this derelict? **
There are two different derelict freighter events in the game.

Not Boardable, if the derelict...
• is broken into large pieces, like the lower freighter model in this image
• has no landing pads by the bridge
• has shootable cargo pods nearby (it may not)

If there are nearby cargo pods, you may shoot them for materials, which it will trigger pirates.

Boardable, if the derelict...
• is not broken into major pieces
• has four landing pads located by the bridge
• looks like the top freighter model in this image (colors vary)

You may find it just by pulsing on rare occasions. But if you activate an Emergency Signal Scanner (ESS) in your inventory, you'll ensure one spawns. Once it's detected (see example), exit pulse, land and loot. Be ready with life support recharges, cold protection recharges, and ammo for your weapon of choice.

Contributors: Atlas Emissaries

night time on a planet, look up, remember that it can't be storming, and that anomaly suppressor charge also controls how fast time passes

[silk wasp]

the planet where is my base must be good

the loading screen never ends, must i close the app or wait?

[remote thunder]

going to another system that has lots of uploaded bases from other players may increase the loading time considerably; this isn't necessarily an indication that something is wrong with our game - we've seen reports of 10+ minutes to finally load through. that said, if you see yourself forced to close game, i'd suggest disabling internet first (unplug lan cable and/or disconnect from wifi), then launching game and trying to teleport/portal again

[silk wasp]

yup, done, i disconnect internet and reset ps4 and does work🫡

[remote thunder]

then should be able to save, quit game, and reenable internet, should be fine after you're in

inventory isn't automatically transferred, but in the exchange screen, you can change visible inventory from tech to cargo at the top, and if the new ship has enough free cargo slots, you could possibly be able to transfer everything cargo wise from one ship to the other

how can i do expedition 12 ?

[quaint urchin]

If on PC you can use Mods as far as I know, but I'd recommend asking in #nms-modding for details on how to do it. If on console I don't think you can do any past expeditions.

[ripe dock]

Is there a way to see which expeditions I actually completed?

I have a sneaking suspicion I forgot to click the final reward of Aquarius

ah, I found it

Interestingly, Leviathan says it was done, but I just tried to log into my old Leviathan expedition and it wasn't done

[leaden ember]

Which system in phase 4 in? Last time I was on I travelled to another space station for the exotic animals but now I don't know which system had the phase 4 system

best to confirm via quicksilver shop/collect expedition rewards

[dark zodiac]

What happens with everything i got in the expedition?

For example the freighter i bought and the ships

[remote thunder]

did you start expedition run from new or existing save?

[dark zodiac]

From the one i had, i went into the ball, choose the exped and i started it without anything

[remote thunder]

gotcha.

[dark zodiac]

So i have a whole new set of ships. Including the herald, which i fear to loose if i return to the main save

[remote thunder]

1. freighter, no
2. ships, yes; if you got more than 1 you want to copy back into primary save let me know
3. boundary herald is an account wide unlock, you don't have to copy it back, you can simply claim it once per save in any save under the same account (for this purpose, your expedition run is a different save, nothing to worry about)
4. currencies and bases you might have built in expedition get merged into primary save on finish

[dark zodiac]

Ok nice! The only thing i really want is the boundary herald, so this is all i need to know

Thank you so much!

[remote thunder]

you'll claim it from the quicksilver shop, collect expedition rewards. no problem, glad we could help 🙂

[median sparrow]

Can't even kill sentinels with the starting multitool ugh.

[rocky kernel]

Did you add a bunch of low level weapon upgrades to it? I had no issues killing sentinels with what you are first given. But if you added c or b class upgrades it can be harder as it counts the number of weapon upgrades not the level for how difficult the sentinels are.

[remote thunder]

remember to take a look at upgrade module shops in space stations

I don't install anything under an S

Oglegk III system, Uila Omega planet would again work for this one

[silk wasp]

I hate the quest to recover contaminated metal from the destroyed freighter

[remote thunder]

actually pretty simple, if you get crew manifest and captains log from the derelict freighter mission, and sell them to scrap dealer

200 tainted metal each, = 400, milestone complete

[silk wasp]

hmmm may🤔

[silk wasp]

thanks!

i just get the crew manifest

[median sparrow]

That's an interesting thing I just learned.

Supercharging the weapon blueprint itself sky rocketed my damage vs the S class upgrade

[remote thunder]

yeah, know rule of thumb for supercharging weapons

first core tech, then module(s)

exception to that is neutron cannon: SC goes to pfield compressor instead of core tech, then module(s)

sentinel ships also primarily SC core techs, then module(s)

everything else, e.g. non-sentinel ships, non-weapons e.g. life support, jetpack - SC module(s)

[median sparrow]

Also

Just watched a bunch of boundary jellies attack the corrupt sentinels, so that's neat.

[silk rain]

ended the expedition and got 147991 units, thats it... uhmmm sir

[remote thunder]

bonus units right?

[silk rain]

no it was like final reward

i guess just a bug

[leaden ember]

Why is it getting harder to kill sentinels?

[remote thunder]

are you escalating wanted level?

[leaden ember]

Like I upgraded my multitool yet it's harder tolkill them now?

Mope

[remote thunder]

damage scaling

[leaden ember]

?

[remote thunder]

damage scaling is when enemies get stronger because we upgraded ourselves or our gear

that said, we can easily outpace it

post a screenshot of your multitools tech inventory

[leaden ember]

I can't, I'm on switch but I could easily recreate it if you give me a few minutes

[leaden ember]

[silk wasp]

captain diary and crew manifest in my inventory, if i sell this to scrap dealer i get 400 contaminated metal?

[remote thunder]

yes, but first: did you loot engineering room terminal as well? so mission is telling you to exit the derelict?

[silk wasp]

nope

[remote thunder]

go all the way through

look above the doors, look for the white arrows

you can even store boltcaster core tech itself, since you've got another weapon tech installed (pulse spitter) and you're going to focus on buffing pulse spitter

no need to have boltcaster when you're switching through if you're not going to use it

in any case, can always install the stored packages back up

[leaden ember]

Ah okay so basically storeboltcaster plus unnecessary things

[remote thunder]

just the stuff that's related to boltcaster, including the sentinel module (sentinel modules only buff boltcaster)

[leaden ember]

OH OKAY now it makes more sense

let me get some room in my inventory to do this

Okay got everthing neatly stored and sorted

[remote thunder]

alright

[remote thunder]

try this, shoot up a sentinel, see how that feels

[leaden ember]

Okay, flying to a planet now

[orchid cave]

Does the current expedition have NPCs that you can sell technology modules to? I remember a recent one not having any.

[leaden ember]

Yep, that was ALOT better, thank you

[quaint urchin]

Yes

In space stations

[orchid cave]

Thanks. I plan on taking some with me that I can see for nanites.

[quaint urchin]

Here's other sources in case it helps

[remote thunder]

now -- you could bump that up with another 2 s-class pulse spitter modules (place them where the a-class scanner and the c-class boltcaster were in the prev image), and/or get paralysis mortar from anomaly MT research npc for crowd control/side effect: more pspitter shots hit

[quaint urchin]

If you normally scan all Fauna on your Primary Save, you can claim those same Nanite Bonuses again in the Expedition save.

This screen shot was from about 5 minutes after starting an Expedition. Look at all of those Nanites.

[leaden ember]

It can get better then THIS??? Okay Ima do that ASAP

[remote thunder]

(did you mean it the other way around? because even when started from existing save, discoveries should be clean on the expedition run)

[quaint urchin]

Nope, it works to scan and claim them in Primary and then you can claim them again in the Expedition. Check that screen shot. The only currency I have is Nanites because I had just started that Expedition off of my primary save.

[remote thunder]

pulse spitter modules from space stations MT upgrade module shops (s-class recommended), i do believe one of the rendezvous system stations had pspitter modules for sale

[remote thunder]

i'm confused sorry. so you're saying that you start an expedition run from an existing save, and you already have discoveries there, besides the expedition starter system?

[quaint urchin]

Yep

[leaden ember]

Which system do you end up in for phase 4? I have been travelling through the portals at the space stations and now forget which one is for the phase 4 space station, I need to know so I can find the portal to get to phase 5

[remote thunder]

i really don't think that's intended. i'm booting up the game to start a run from an existing save, see if i can repro

[remote thunder]

to do breach 4 milestone in?

should be Oglegk III

[leaden ember]

Yea,

[leaden ember]

Oh okay then good thing I'm here

[remote thunder]

iirc it doesn't really matter though, as long as you got the right kind of blood

[leaden ember]

oh okay

[livid drift]

I thought there were some tips somewhere for defeating the quadrupeds... I can't find them if they were pinned X_X

On that note, how do you actually find/recognize the quads? IIRC they aren't the drill machines?

[unkempt kraken]

@livid drift
-# to view info below, enable embeds

<:info:850810445577453658> Expedition 16: Tips to find and destroy Corrupted Quadrupeds

Tips for finding them:

• 1) Try to locate Dissonance Resonators - some of them will be guarded by large quadrupeds.
• 2) Alternatively, you can start a fight by just looting a Gravitino Ball, and escalate wanted level to level 3, when large quadrupeds can spawn.

Tips for taking them out:

• 1) Install Paralysis Mortar+Primary weapon of choice(+3 S-class upgrades). Locate and approach a corrupted quadruped. If there's any floaters around kite them away first (mine something nearby so that they'll go investigate, leaving you alone with the quadruped). Shoot Paralysis Mortar at quadruped to stun it, re-applying stun as needed, while shooting primary weapon.
  Bonus: Unlock and install Voltaic Amplifier from Space Anomaly/Multi-tool research NPC for +21% damage vs stunned entities.
• 2) Use Minotaur+Minotaur Cannon.
• 3) From the air, especially if your current ship has hovering capabilities, for example using Rocket Launcher.
  

Shared by: bkay201 Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

[livid drift]

Ah, there's even an advice blurb saying to shoot them with your ship here-

oh sweet!

I only have two S-class upgrades even though I have the paralysis mortar. rocket launcher it will be

I have to say, even though I'm a fan of the scatter blaster, I think I'm being converted to pulse spitter

[remote thunder]

pew pew pew

i love it, it's my fav weapon

add impact igniter -- so good

ofc, para mortar+volt amp is always on the side

@quaint urchin yeah, you're right! lol - how did i not notice this 😄 in any case, i'm sticking with my opinion of before though: this is hardly intended 😅 thanks for letting me know.

[open dagger]

We do like this feature of the expeditions. Never have enough nanites at the start of a run 😉

[remote thunder]

i do understand that pov, but.. idk, it definitely doesn't feel right to me, and excluding that, i think it was always meant to be a fresh run, at least until we get to the anomaly. imo anyway.

[median sparrow]

Aww I dun goofed.

Been murdering the abyssal horrors and didn't loot the eyes.

[remote thunder]

did you run the derelict freighter/tainted metal milestone yet?

[median sparrow]

Not yet.

[remote thunder]

could end up getting some from looting crates/lockers in there

original run i got all 4 hypno eyes from there

[median sparrow]

Oh whattt

Here I am playing in the water.

[remote thunder]

@median sparrow remember to get the crew manifest and captains log to turn in both to the scrap dealer, getting 400 tainted metal for it

[median sparrow]

That's interesting... everything else is gray except that spot

Oh yeah. I'm gonna loot the whole place.

I don't want to cuz I hate the slow walking but, I'm already gonna be there. So might as well.

[remote thunder]

easy df in the starter system and in noyama-kaus

only drones/turrets and a few jellyfish, no nests

[open dagger]

Truth be told, i would prefer it started at zero as well which is usually what i do in actual play

[median sparrow]

i just sorta, fly around and the DF will show up?

[remote thunder]

go buy coordinates from the scrap dealer in the space station (standing in front of appearance modifier, to your right, behind the stairs), 5M

[median sparrow]

Was hoping to not lose 5m credits, but if it's what I gotta dooooo

[silk wasp]

I'm on the exotic planet, how do I scan creatures? Because I press the button, but it doesn't do anything

[open dagger]

It is reusable if you do not mind using a glitch. After you discover the DF it scans you can place it in your personal refiner before you land on the freighter and remove when you are back to the space station cashing in

[remote thunder]

open analysis visor, aim at a red dot, press and hold primary fire

[silk wasp]

nah is done my control is bad

[silk wasp]

mmmm what planet can be 60m water depth?

[livid drift]

out 5m units gang......

I'm glad there's another week on this, this is the worst expedition to do on a bad brain day XD

[median sparrow]

That's my secret

all my days are bad brain days.

[remote thunder]

try Noyama-Kaus I system, Idwo Omega planet

[median sparrow]

My boltcaster reloads in like .25s wtf lol

[near folio]

about how long should this expidetion take???

[silk wasp]

mmmm ok i remind a planet what 90% is ocean but not the system

[remote thunder]

the usual 3-6h, depending on how much you focus on progressing milestones/side tracking and how used to expedition flow you are/game knowledge you've amassed

[median sparrow]

10 hours for me cuz I love jellyfish so I just stare off into space.

Also can we take elixirs with us?

Cuz it let me put one in my terminal.

[near folio]

not a lot to be honest im just after the starship lol

[remote thunder]

you'll do just fine, don't worry. remember to check the pinned posts in this channel, anything else just ask 🙂

[near folio]

would you be willing to help guid me and a friend through it were both still learning the game

[median sparrow]

Just hop right into it.

Worst case scenario you get smacked by a jellyfish.

You go back and smack it for smacking you.

[remote thunder]

i'm willing to help anyone who asks for help, but tbh it's nearing 2am where i live, and it's getting close to my bed&rest time

[near folio]

thats fair i wont keep you up

[remote thunder]

but there's always players here to help

+, #nms-questions

additionally, the pinned posts, the faq- commands,

finally, feel free to ping me with any questions, but replies may be delayed 😄

[median sparrow]

I'm determined to take them back with me

#hoarderlife

Wow the boundary herald ship is only 2m scrap?

[silk wasp]

what planet be better for abisal horror?

[median sparrow]

Any with an ocean.

Are you doing the hypnotic eye milestone?

[silk wasp]

Yep

[median sparrow]

Head to the Noyama-kaus system

And do a derelict freighter.

Did you start it from your primary save?

Or as a new save?

[silk wasp]

new save im new in nms

[median sparrow]

Sorry, that one was for the other guy who's messages just got wiped lol.

[unkempt kraken]

@silk wasp

No stickers in this channel please

[leaden ember]

I fgured it out

[median sparrow]

Head to the Noyama-Kaus system.

It's on your way.

[shut plaza]

And done. I went from maybe an hour in adrift when it first came out and zero expeditions until Mass Effect. Now I did all the reduxs. I'm definitely going to do new ones as they come out

[uncut swallow]

I suck at this game.. I cannot kill these corrupted quads. lmfao

[leaden shard]

Try using your ship

That’s what I did the first time this expedition came around

@uncut swallow

[quaint urchin]

Indeed, rocket launcher for the Win when I did it on a New Save.

[leaden shard]

Yup then quickly fly out and back in to lose the ships

Or maybe I would just land quick and hop out

[sly sedge]

No elixer of Quicksilver?

[sly sedge]

Plasma grenades. The small quads will die from one grenade.

[slender sinew]

About to start the Expedition now
Been wasting time

[tepid wedge]

dude i had the same problem

can you do past expeditions

[maiden egret]

for the cursed expedition youre supposed to scan life on exotic planets, but the only exotic planet only has one animal?

[devout echo]

bruh

thats a nutty combo.

isn't this one of those rare shapes/types?

ooops theres a multitool channel ... apologies

[silk wasp]

hiii ! i cant find abysal horror, i need a submarine or anything?

or where can i find? 🫠 i playing from 01:00 to now (9:07) but i cant find it

[wise meteor]

They are underwater

[wraith junco]

Mark task . Go underwater. Mt visor should guide u

[wise meteor]

Often near underwater structures

[silk wasp]

mmm okay but, in any planet and system?

[wraith junco]

Any

[silk wasp]

mmm well okay i continue trying

[wise meteor]

Don't forget to set your mission to be the abyssal horror mission, so then your scanner will show you where they are

[silk wasp]

okay thanks

[wise meteor]

Build a 1 room base in an open flat area with no cover. Start a fight with the sentinels. If you are about to die hide in shelter until shields recover. The roof of the shelter is a good vantage to get the small quads but when the big quads come fight them in the open. Take out the repair bots first. Whilst shooting at big quad with your best weapon strafe left or right. When they shoot back IMMEDIATELY change direction. They will shoot at where you would have been if you had not changed direction and usually miss. That is how I did it.

[median sparrow]

If you're fighting corrupt sentinels, every flying sentinel can repair. Heads up.

[median sparrow]

That was the old screenshot. New one has it for sure. And the resource the horrors drop.

[iron tendon]

Oops, I scavenged the entired derelict freighter but was refining tainted metal as I got it. Luckily I can restore the save point. Wait until you sell both the captain and crew's record before you refine the tainted metal guys!

[median sparrow]

I feel like the metal itself might be worth more than the nanites? (I'm guessing) it gives.

[rain ivy]

Bro I haven’t played in so long I have 5 days to finish this expedition can I

[storm fiber]

you can do it in 5 days, I believe in you!

[fickle prawn]

does anybody know if there is a specific planet to help get nanites, i don't know how and its slowed me down soooo much

[winged bloom]

So is worlds 2 out now?

[winged bloom]

Have you started the exhibition?

[fickle prawn]

yes, im on phase 5 of the nanite farming one

i just can't get nanites

[winged bloom]

Dang, well if you have the money in the exhibition you can go to pirate galaxies and buy the boxes that convert to upgrades and sell those, that's what I do before exhibitions so I have lots of money and nanites after reaching the anomaly

[fickle prawn]

nope i did not do that

i think i have 2400 nanites right now

[winged bloom]

What about credits, if you got a lot of credits you should still be able to buy the boxes from pirate stations

[fickle prawn]

i don't even have a pirate station anywhere

[winged bloom]

Would you be able to hop in and out of galaxies to check or nah, I haven't started the exhibition so I don't know how it works once you started it

[fickle prawn]

no, you can't get hyperdrive

[winged bloom]

Well I'm out of ideas, I'm gonna start it up today so if I figure anything out I'll let you know

[fickle prawn]

ok

[ashen shore]

Guh I need help

[remote thunder]

with

[ashen shore]

Okay so

One of the expedition missions is to scan 2 exotic fauna

The exotic planet I got only had 1 species of exotic fauna

[fickle prawn]

you gotta teleport to one of the other expedition systems

[fresh jolt]

That's normal, otherwise it wouldnt be exotic. There should be another planet with exotic fauna nearby. Try going to R3 or maybe try jumping around in the nearby vicinity. I found one by chance by randomly jumping to another system near R2 then went to R3 for the other one

[ashen shore]

What's does R mean

Despite having a alo of hours on this game I know jackshit about it..

[fresh jolt]

Rendezvous

[ashen shore]

As in the previous systems?

[fresh jolt]

Yep. I assume that you found the first exotic fauna in the system where the mission is at right?

[ashen shore]

Yes

[fresh jolt]

You can try to jump to a few of the systems nearby that system first. If you don't have any luck there, go to the space station and use the teleporter to teleport to the previous rendezvous system and try again. It'll require some luck, but you definitely won't get soft locked

[ashen shore]

Okiii

[analog onyx]

New expedition today? Or no

Aw, I thought there’d be a worlds part 2 one

[gloomy carbon]

there will be after this one ends

[remote thunder]

remember to check the pins, @ashen shore

@ashen shore , @fresh jolt

literally -- no need to randomly warping around... rdv systems will have you covered

[analog onyx]

Oh cursed is the last redux?

[gloomy carbon]

yes!

[fickle prawn]

agh why can't i get nanites

i figured out a way

i just refine tainted metal

[livid drift]

Ok want to make sure I'm reading right: worlds part 2 is live today, still during the redux?

(or is it not live today, I haven't gotten there yet)

[ashen shore]

I made a minator and killed dissonat sentianls lol

[fickle prawn]

yesssss

[fickle prawn]

i completed the expedition

do i save the starship for later so i can claim it in my main save or no?

[ashen shore]

I am nearly done with it

Only 2 objectives left

[fickle prawn]

do i save my ship for my main save or can i claim it now?

[peak kernel]

actually a reward from one of the other milestones gives you a lot of goop that refines into nanites "eventually". So much goop. But I got my nanites from fishing. If you release fish you get nanites.

[ashen shore]

3 if u count entering the poetal

[fickle prawn]

i got the nanites but i finished the expedition, but do i save my ship for my main save or can i claim it in 2?

[peak kernel]

I think expedition rewards can be claimed in any game from the anomaly quicksilver guy.

[sweet widget]

Yes

[sweet widget]

I just got the answer from another room. The new expedition isn't up yet, but real soon they say

[ashen shore]

Question

How do I probe the walls of reality

[peak kernel]

like in the game or....

[ashen shore]

Yhe game yes

[sweet widget]

I forgot exactly how but I'm pretty sure it was pretty straightforward?

Like just press E in certain location, or just go somewhere the marker tells you to

[peak kernel]

yeah when it is time for you to do it, you will know how

[livid drift]

Time to trip harder over jellyfish!!! (Well, later)

Wonder how they'll look over the new water

"new" ehhhh I don't know but maybe you get my drift

[median sparrow]

I just want the jellyfish helmet.

[patent hill]

Is exp. 17 live after the current redux exp.?

[median sparrow]

Soonish

Maybe.

No word

I didn't know the update was live because I'm at work still 😦

[patent hill]

Cool, just looked and panicked cos I though I’d somehow missed an expedition

Says if missed 17

[median sparrow]

Nope. You got time.

And if you did miss it. Don't worry. They'll bring it back.

[livid drift]

I didn't know it was live because I didn't expect them to just be like SURPRISE, here it is XD

[hollow wagon]

yo, so now that i got the expedition ship, will it be instantly unlocked in every new save?

[hoary cypress]

when does worlds appart exp II ends ?

[hoary cypress]

you can claim it at enxus in each new safe yeah

[winged bloom]

I loaded into an exhibition thinking it was the new one, why did I get put in the #16 redux?

[hollow wagon]

very nice

[hoary cypress]

thats why exp ships are best to have for exomaple if its S class you can basicaly start with that on each safe

[wraith badge]

The Cursed is the currently running Expedition ... the new expedition for the latest update will probably start when the current expedition has ended

[winged bloom]

So it's not our yet?

[hoary cypress]

still cursed ?? but thats the exp for the UFo that should have ended months ago ?

i read a article that it should update today ?

[wraith badge]

You may need 1400 nanites in order to unlock the ship in each save, that's how it worked previously

[winged bloom]

Why would they update it and talk about the new exhibition if it's not out yet and the redux is still running?

[hoary cypress]

i never paid to claim exp rewards in new safes lol

[wraith badge]

Yes the Update is out today ... not the expedition

[winged bloom]

People were talking about being in the new exhibition earlier, how did they get it

[hoary cypress]

ohhh

[hoary cypress]

so nobody knows when worlds appart II starts ?

[wraith badge]

Does no one bother reading things these days ?

[winged bloom]

I got on, updated the game thinking that the new exhibition was out and I was excited to play, I loaded it up and it was cursed, such a bummer

I read the whole update list, I just thought that since they were releasing the update today the new exhibition started, why drop it if it wasn't out

[wraith badge]

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Starborn_Runner the non cheating way to get it

[median sparrow]

To be fair. I read it but that specific set of update notes was thiccc

[summer geyser]

they often delay expeditions after updates to ensure that the update is mostly out to major systems so people get a fair shot

[wraith badge]

well large update = lots of notes 😉

[summer geyser]

this update is a godsend ngl

[wraith badge]

I just wish my PC upgrade was done ... sadly still waiting on CPU, RAM and an NVMe

[winged bloom]

how long do you think the exhinition will run for cause i probablyk wont be able to play for a little after the 3rd

[median sparrow]

I just finished my pc upgrade too

[wraith badge]

if other past expeditions are anything to go by new ones run for about 6 weeks or so

[winged bloom]

hopefully thats the case, i dont wanna have to wait until end of year for the redux to play it again

[hoary cypress]

since when they cost something ?

claiming exp rewards was allways free till now

[wraith badge]

Ships have always cost on other saves

[hoary cypress]

oh i never relaized that

but 1k nan is almost free lol

[median sparrow]

First thing I'm doing when I update is hitting that sort button

[carmine tartan]

still no new expedition

[wraith badge]

the rewards are free but things like ships cost nanites on another save if you want it

[hoary cypress]

frigates to ?

[wraith badge]

soon™️

[carmine tartan]

thanks

[wraith badge]

Not sure best way to find out visit the QS vendor in the Anomaly and check, everything should be listed even if you've never done the expedition and it'll say if it requires nanites to unlock

[hoary cypress]

to lazy to do that faster to just ask here

[carmine tartan]

I think they took inspiration from these for the expedition ship

[soft tapir]

Brooooo....the expedition threw me in an ocean far from any land or di-hydrogen. How the fuck am I supposed to make this elixir if I can't even access the materials I need

[hoary cypress]

which one ?

[hoary cypress]

kill enemies and make it lol

[hoary cypress]

thats what i did

[soft tapir]

I need di-hydrogen. And am in the middle of THE OCEAN with no major land masses nearby that have it. I can't make the elixir without it

[hoary cypress]

but you have fuel to take of and find land portal can't be below the water

[tawdry swallow]

and they say aliens don't exist

[hoary cypress]

looks like a frog for me

[tawdry swallow]

You're a frog to me

[carmine tartan]

its a slug

[hoary cypress]

there is another cursed exp ship rn ?

[carmine tartan]

no for the next expedition 17

[soft tapir]

And how am I supposed to take off with a broken launch thruster which needs pure ferrite to repair which i need a refiner to make which I can't make without oxygen. Which I've got no sources of nearby. I've only found a single hazardous flora the whole time i was scrambling looking for them

[hoary cypress]

hm... it has to be possible since some players completed it

[soft tapir]

And how many of those players got dumped in the middle of the ocean with basically none of these resources nearby?

[hoary cypress]

whats the current one ?

[carmine tartan]

cursed

[hoary cypress]

the ship not the exp

[soft tapir]

If I'd spawned on land that would have been fine but in the ocean? I'm basically screwed

[carmine tartan]

you can get oxygen from the ocean

[hoary cypress]

should you not spawn allways at same spot ?

[livid drift]

I'm late but nope, have you seen these people

[hoary cypress]

where was that ic never saw that ?

[livid drift]

pff look at all these people acting like the exp is rigged to be out to get them and specifically uncompletable to make them miserable

[livid drift]

short answer: no.

[soft tapir]

Nope. Spawns are different for every person. Same planet I believe but never the same location

[hoary cypress]

never knew that i did a buch of exps

[tacit pollen]

when is the new expedition?

[hoary cypress]

soon allready asked

[livid drift]

bot channel, !exptime , enjoy

[tacit pollen]

ty

[past egret]

it looks like they animated the cockpit controls for non vr users

[livid drift]

Yeah uh, I should have thought twice before stopping by because the influx of non-readers and repeated questions is gonna be... hoo-ee.

[past egret]

don't remember it being that way in last patch

[livid drift]

Anyway! Time to bust some quads

[soft tapir]

Panic over. I found enough resources in an abandoned building to get my thruster repaired so I can get away from this hell hole of a spawn

[past egret]

was this always a thing these little shield looking dealies on ships?

[soft tapir]

I think that's a hauler type ship so those are likely cargo bays

[livid drift]

I wonder if favorited bases will carry over back to main, in which case thank you bass pro shop (unfortunately the Corrupt Quadruped Shooting Range seems to have disappeared)

[muted wave]

Poor person who hold it

[wraith badge]

I have the Frigate: Ship of the Damned in the list of available rewards the reason I cannot claim it is my fleet is already full. So looks like its just ships you need to have nanites for

[livid drift]

I need to find the sentinel quad information again (there might be a command for it but not sure). All I did so far was shoot a bunch of little drones and then not quite be able to kill the quads that showed up. I have to find the quads roaming around for better results and I'm not sure how that goes

[hoary cypress]

i found a bug in the expedition since i was able to build and use a warp drive durring exp what should not be possible lol

[low horizon]

question for expedition, do I need to finish all the main missions first to do an expedition? I am still relatively new. Also do I use my main save or start a different save (I have been reading something about this)

[blazing fossil]

No
You can start an expedition whenever

[hoary cypress]

exp is a separate gamemode

[blazing fossil]

Whatever you like

[low horizon]

do I lose anything from the main save/character? or rather is there a risk of losing ships, bases, mats etc.?

[livid drift]

okay, worse than that, the things I'm killing are apparently not the quadrupeds

[low horizon]

and is this something I can solo or should group up for?

this would be my first expedition

[blazing fossil]

Quadrupeds are the crab looking things

Big ones

Or maybe it’s the dogs

Can’t remember

[livid drift]

you have to solo it. In fact, turn off multiplayer right now because it can glitch things up

[livid drift]

all I've found is small crabs and those aren't boosting the quad count for the milestone even though I've killed at least 2

I feel like there's a command that brings up info on it but I ca't remneber

#nms-expedition message Found it. But I haven't seen any large quadrupeds even at wanted 3.

actually, I could SWEAR I've killed some of those. Huh????

Nope, these are bulkier X_X I just got merc'd

on that note, do sentinels just sometimes kind of. pop out of existence? It's making aiming tough

Not being able to see them isn't helping me stay alive

using the scatter blaster makes them vanish almost immediately and I'm not sure if it's a glitch or not.

exp17 had better be a bit more chill XD

[blazing fossil]

They have a cloak

[livid drift]

at this point I'm just letting them kill me as a way out
